What inspectors found

CQC: Requires improvement

Report published 27 March 2020 · Last inspected 14 February 2020

Inspectors visited this domiciliary agency in February 2020 and found that it supports 65 people with personal care in their own homes around Newcastle-under-Lyme. Staff were described as safely recruited, skilled, and regular, knowing the people they support well, and people said they felt safe and were involved in planning their care. The report notes that the service remains rated requires improvement and that recent changes still need to be fully embedded.

Strengths noted
  • Staff were safely recruited, had the skills to provide effective care, and were regular carers who knew the people they supported well
  • People felt safe, and staff understood how to recognise and report possible abuse
  • People were supported to make choices and were involved in planning and reviewing their care
  • There was an open culture, complaints were acted upon, and the manager had begun gathering people's verbal feedback, which was positive
Areas to improve
  • Some medicines were not always recorded and managed safely, and inspectors made a recommendation about this
  • Care records did not always give staff effective guidance for wider health needs, such as diabetes
  • Quality monitoring systems did not always identify areas for improvement
